Cheers
- Where'd we get the toast " Here's mud in your eye?" From horse racers of old. It was the humorous equivalent of saying, "I hope the horse you ride is right behind mine."
- Other sources say that " Here's mud in your eye " was first an Australian toast. But it was used a lot more than that other Australian toast: "Here's more hair on your navel!"
- Where does the custom of toasting come from? In Greece during the sixth century B.C., a host, after the wine was poured, raised his cup for all to see and drank—to prove it wasn't poisoned.
